WE’re On a mission…
Create meaningful skillBridge Opportunities for every servicemember
We know servicemembers have choices, and we also know that transitioning servicemembers just don’t know what they don’t know. You know? Many servicemembers just aren’t familiar with all of the different roles that exist in the multitude of industries across the nation, and can’t see how they might fit in.
We know it can be a struggle for businesses to connect with the right talent to fill critical roles – especially in areas with a tight or niche labor pool.
“Low risk, high reward talent sourcing via SkillBridge is not a charitable corporate endaevor – it is a business imperative.”
Let us help you showcase your business to military talent in a way that helps them envision a place for themselves with you – and gain early access to new talent that isn’t yet visible to your competitors searching the same pool.
Let us help you see how a combat engineer can become your new loan underwriter, or a parachute rigger can become your client relationship manager. Looking for digital forensics support in Amish country? Great, because there’s a cybersecurity professional leaving the Navy who wants to move back to her hometown.
